"Well," says the doctor, after we had stood there a piece, "I guess we better be moving on again, Danny." But jest as Sam, who was follering along behind with that suit case, picks it up and puts it on his head agin, they come a sound, from away off in the distance somewheres, that made him set it down quick. And we all stops in our tracks and looks at each other.
Not to say that I never stretched my yarn a little on the fo'castle in my younger days, like the rest of 'em; but what with living under roofs so long past, and a call from the parson regular in strawberry time, and having to do the flogging consequent on the inakkeracies of statement follering on the growing up of six boys, a man learns to trim his words a little, Tom, and no mistake.
'Lawyer Lightwood, take care, you, what I say; for I judge you'll be answerable for follering it up! Then, slowly and emphatically beating it all out with his open right hand on the palm of his left; 'I, Roger Riderhood, Lime'us Hole, Waterside character, tell you, Lawyer Lightwood, that the man Jesse Hexam, commonly called upon the river and along-shore Gaffer, told me that he done the deed.
"Having got my possibles, I then tuk arter the mustang, and follered for at least ten miles on his tracks, but I never see'd that, mustang agin. Whether the wolves hunted him down or not, I can't say, nor I don't care if they did, the scarey brute!

"'You've got your money, ses the skipper; 'now go as quick as you can. "'Arry smiled and nodded at him. Then he stepped on to the wharf and was just moving to the gate, with us follering, when the wicket opened and in came Mrs. Muffit and Uncle Dick.

"This is certainly very remarkable!" said Barnabas.
Here have I been, a matter of how many weeks hard upon six a follering up this here blessed old dowager petty larcenerer, Mr Squeers delivered himself of this epithet with great difficulty and effort, 'and Dotheboys Hall a-running itself regularly to seed the while!
